Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;
-
and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
-
“Yes, Lord,” she replied, “I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.”
-
Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?”
-
I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me.”

The Plot to Kill Jesus
Therefore many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in him.
-
If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our temple and our nation.”
-
for on account of him many of the Jews were going over to Jesus and believing in him.
-
Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may become children of light.” When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them.

Belief and Unbelief Among the Jews
Even after Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still would not believe in him.
-
This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: “Lord, who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
-
For this reason they could not believe, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere:
-
Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him. But because of the Pharisees they would not openly acknowledge their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue;
-
Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in me does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me.
-
I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.
-
“I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am who I am.

Jesus Comforts His Disciples
“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.
-
Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.
-
Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves.
-
Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
-
I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe.
-
about sin, because people do not believe in me;
-
No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.
-
Now we can see that you know all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe that you came from God.”
-
“Do you now believe?” Jesus replied.
